The crunching of leaves under my feet, Brings me back to the present. My mood is far from upbeat, For I’m thinking about time that went. I walk along the memory lane, Thinking about my stories, It comes along with a twinge of pain, Because now they are only memories. I wonder how things in life change, Here today, gone tomorrow. Though it may all […]
Life’s choices, Are often hard to make. You are troubled by the voices, Of your heart and mind. Things are never simple, For one choice would mean, Giving up another, Which was also equally close to you. Would you give up, The desires of your heart? Or would you give up, What seems logical? I don’t know, Which way to go, I stand here, At […]
I thought the world, Was a cold place, Bereft of feelings, And of humanity. For no one understood, My dreams and aspirations. My mistakes and scars, Were all that they saw. No one had the time, For a warm smile. A kind word or deed, Seemed never to exist. And then you came. You set afire, The fear and inhibitions, That came in the way, […]
There are so many things, That I want to do. So many dreams, That I want to chase. There are places, That I want to go! There are times, When I wish I could travel in time. But life doesn’t work that way, For often we are stuck in a rut. Can I just go away, To a place and time of my choice? Why […]
I live life in my own way, A life lived by my own rules. I’m not afraid, Of chasing my dreams. I’m not scared, Of the troubles that come my way. I live in a world of my dreams, Not caring about, What the world has to say. I can’t live by things, That I do not believe in, I’m what I am, And I […]
I don’t know why, You had to leave so soon. I was a little girl then, And you’d promised, You’d never leave me alone. I didn’t realize that, Death could make promises break. For I even didn’t know, What dying would entail, For I didn’t know the cruelty of death. Death took you away from me, And we all know it was too early. But […]
I stand surprised, At the sight of you. For I never thought, That I’d see you again. There are so many things, That I want to tell you. And I don’t know, From where to begin. I grope for the words, Searching for them, In every nook and cranny. I struggle to call out your name, For I can’t remember it now. It is all […]
I bury myself at times, In the depths of sorrow, Falling down each time, I try to climb, Out of that never ending pit. And then when I’m happy, I soar and I fly, High above the clouds, My spirit in a state of euphoria, And then I fall again. I oscillate between extremes, Not knowing what normal means. Is it because I take to […]
Lost in a world of my own, While running to catch up with life, I’m too busy to notice, The beauty around me. But today I walk along, With the grass caressing my feet, As the birds break into song, As my eyes glimpse the blue sky. The fragrance of the blooming flowers, Carried by the gentle breeze, Lifts my spirits, And sets my mind […]
All of us carry, A bagful of sorrows, And a bagful of joys. But we go through life, Like we are living in vain. We say life is being unfair, And we call ourselves, The only victims, Of life’s injustice. We fail to see, The good things, That come our way. Because we are stuck, In that moment in past, Or even in the future […]
